Over the course of 2018, I wrote 318507 words. That number's a bit squishy because Gdocs counts html code for bold/italics as words and also counts a triple asterisk as a word, but I don't think it's that squishy. Some things ended up in my deleted snippets documents and will never see the light of day again, but I'm counting them because they were still words that I worked to produce.
My monthly word count for December 2018 was the lowest all year at 11265 words. August had 12247 words. My highest word count month was March at 50538 words. I have no clue why March was so productive.
I posted 275177 words across 41 stories in 2018. A chunk of what I posted had been written in previous years, so this word count shouldn't be taken as my having posted any particular percentage of what I worked on. (I could actually figure that out because I've kept records, but good lord, do I not want to do that much work.) I've still got a lot of partially written stories.
